Famous quotes containing the word leisure:
“When at leisure make preparations for a time of need.”
—Chinese proverb.
“The secret of being miserable is to have leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure for it is occupation.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure.... Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon.... The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness.”
—Henri Lefebvre (b. 1901)
